15K / 15CT Antique, Victorian Old Cut Diamond & Turquoise Pendant

Victorian turquoise paired with old-cut diamonds and gold is exceptionally rare and collectible. While diamonds are mined at an annual rate of approximately 130 million carats, the supply of high-quality turquoise—especially antique turquoise from the Victorian era—is estimated to be less than 1% of that amount. Add to this the rarity of old-cut diamonds, hand-faceted in the 19th century, and the craftsmanship of antique gold settings, and you have a combination that embodies both historical significance and unparalleled scarcity.
